The last file imported early this morning so the data is in! Next question, do I need to leave logging off (it's set to bulk actually) until I add the Identity PK? How does logging work in a case like that? Does SQL Server add a log entry for each record that it adds the value into? John W.

DTS strips them off but I can't for the life of me figure out how to have BCP do that. I'm almost done importing at this point. The imports are (crossing my fingers) proceeding smoothly, I am currently processing file 18 of 22, thus by tomorrow morning I should have them all in. Then I have to figure out backup. IMMEDIATELY! I do NOT want to lose this stuff and have to do it again. John W. Colby www.ColbyConsulting.com
